Uninstall phpstorm 7.1 on ubuntu to install phpstorm 8

title says that all this I want to remove phpstorm, so I can update, but I can not figure out how to do it. I am tired of doing sudo apt-get remove phpstorm as well as version number, but it does not work.

I also tried the synaptic box, but still could not find the phpstorm storm, I also tried the brains of the jets and phpstorm.

What can I do to delete it correctly, should I just delete all the files in which it is located? Also, what is the phpstorm package name made this way, I can remove it with sudo apt-get remove 'packageName'

Appreciate all thanks.

On Linux, PhpStorm is not installed through apt. You should have extracted the .tar.gz file to a directory and then run it from there (with the ability to create some shortcuts later).

When upgrading to a new version of PhpStorm, it is suggested that you simply install the latest version in a completely empty directory (rather than overwriting the old directory).

You can run find ./ -name phpstorm.sh from your home directory (assuming you installed it in your home directory to find where it was extracted). Usually it is located in the folder "PhpStorm-13 #. # / Bin", depending on the internal version number of version 7.1.

My results (PhpStorm 8):

$ find ./ -name phpstorm.sh ./JetBrains/PhpStorm-138.2001.2328/bin/phpstorm.sh

You only need to remove the installation directory, in my case the directory:

 $rm -r ~/.PhpStorm2016.1 #check using Ctrl + H

delete this directory and remove the pstorm script

 $sudo rm /usr/local/bin/pstorm

you can find pstorm using

 $whereis pstorm

  • sudo snap list
  • sudo snap remove phpstorm

This is the best way. If you install phpstorm without binding, it will still work.

If for any reason you want to remove PhpStorm, just delete / opt / phpstorm / directory and all the subdirectories and files in it.

sudo rm / opt / phpstorm / -R
